thanks for your comments roger. [perhaps i should have mentioned: superfine is uncoated.]
same question but targeting cmyk plates for relief, uncoated paper again, using oil-based inks: what space here? has anyone attempted reference specifications for this? i expect dot gain is a huge variable.
best,
edward
